A columnist for the New York Times, Nicholas Kristof, who is married to the vice chair of Harvard Board of Overseers, Sheryl WuDunn, publicly humiliated himself Friday afternoon on a Harvard Kennedy School stage for what was billed as the Malcolm H. Wiener Lecture in International Political Economy.

It turned out to be not a lecture but a pathetic, apparently unprepared question-and-answer style performance by Kristof, who doubled down on his unverified fantasy that Israel is using a trained dog to rape Palestinian prisoners. Kristof said this had happened to "numerous" prisoners, though he also said he couldn’t say how many.

He claimed he knew this based on reports from human rights groups that he said didn’t talk to each other but that he then conceded under questioning did talk to each other. The post Kristof Humiliates Himself and Harvard With Israel Dog-Rape Libel appeared first on .
